Etymology
'Homestead or enclosure where ferns grow', from fearn and hām or hamm , cf. Six. Handley par. infra , Gussage St M. par. supra . This p.n. occurs in several other counties, e.g. Farnham Ess 550, Fernham Brk 371. The affixes -Deverel , -Cary and Gounvyle - are manorial: Elias (de ) Deverel held a fee here in 1261 FF and 1314 Cl, Thomas Cary held the principal manor in 1357 Hutch3 (3 430), and Gounvyle - must be from the family which gave name to the adjacent par. of Tarrant Gunville infra .
